After Mr. Chen Guanghui from Jiangsu Province Died as a Result of a Police Beating, the Authorities Infiltrated His Funeral to Prevent the Exposure of Their Crime

(Clearwisdom.net) The Baixia District Court unlawfully sentenced practitioner Mr. Chen Guanghui of Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province, to eight years imprisonment in 2002. He was sent to Suzhou Prison in Jiangsu Province. On July 29, 2004, brutal police beatings fractured his skull. He was beaten simply because he refused to renounce his belief in Falun Dafa. After the beating, he went into a vegetative state. He was under the supervision of the prison in the No. 100 Hospital until December 12, 2006, when he died.

On the same day that Chen Guanghui passed away, to block the news, personnel from the 610 Office and the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) of Jiangsu Province notified the 610 Offices of Lianyungang City, Huai'an City, Liangshui County, Suzhou City, Gaogou Town (Chen Guanghui's hometown) Police Station, Suzhou City Police, the Procuratorate and the court system, Suzhou Armed Police, and a deputy secretary of the Lianshui County Party Committee to "be prepared." They closely monitored the entire process of Chen Guanghui's funeral. Plainclothes agents from the State Security Bureau and policemen from the prison system were present. There were more than a hundred of them, several times more than the number of Mr. Chen's family members. They set up surveillance cameras everywhere and spied on every one of his family members from all directions. When the ash box was taken home, the hearse was followed by a long line of vehicles full of these police personnel.

During the past couple of years, Chen Guanghui's family members had repeatedly asked the Prison Administration Bureau of Jiangsu Province for his release, but they were always refused. The prison said that it was "absolutely impossible." When Chen Guanghui was in critical condition, the prison administration pressured the hospita, saying, "We are not here to prevent his family members from knowing about his condition, we are mainly trying to prevent being exposed by other practitioners and international investigations."
